    Hey all
    We have some beautiful mangroves in today.  These aren't just a pod, they are fully rooted and leafed out.  $8 each.
    Tomorrow we have a nice wartskin angler coming in, a dozen lyretail Anthias along with many other fish & inverts from Quality Marine.
    Also coming tomorrow from Sustainable Aquatics we have some aquacultured B&W clowns, two black ice clowns, and a few of the fancy white ones that everyone has been wanting.

    How many mangroves do you have?

    Also do you have any 20 gallon tanks with a 1" bulk head in one of the sides not the back? Or would you drive a 10 gallon tank for me?

    The black ice clowns are $150
    We got in 100 mangroves.
    We dont have any 20 gallon tanks drilled, but we can always drill one.
    We have drilled several ten gallon tanks, but they are very fragile so it would be at your own risk. A ten gallon will crack 1 out of 5 times while being drilled. We havent had problems with any other size.

    No we havent. Can you contact them to make sure it is not tempered? I drilled into a tank once when the customer assured me it wasnt tempered. It made a very loud noise when it shattered to say the least.

    Thanks

    What's your experience been with canarys? Liveaquaria lists them as venomous...although I don't know if it's their fins, or bite, or what, that is actually venomous. Are those good for peaceful reef tanks, or would the Midas be a better choice? They look very similar...at least the pictures do.

    Personally I havent kept one myself. Their bite is venemous, not the fins. It is used mainly for defense though.

    A midas may be a better choice if you have passive fish in your tank. The one we have now is in a tank with 6 clowns and no problems so far.

    Thanks for the feedback. Sounds like a Midas would be a better choice for my tank. I'll check back with you to see if you get any in stock. To prevent from being annoying, how long should I wait to ask you again? ie....how soon do you think a Midas might become available? I know Liveaquaria has some in stock, but I would strongly prefer to buy from you...so I can wait. I lost my sailfin starry blenny about 6 months ago...so I'm not in a big hurry. The sailfin starry was an awesome reef addition .... lots of personality.

    Do you have any good size pods? Not the bottled stuff, just pods or a nice small piece of live rock (fully cured) to help boost my population.
